SANTA MONICA, Calif. -- Conor McGregor might be reigniting the trend of jumping around weight classes. But he surely didn't start it, according to Muhammed Lawal.
McGregor left the division where he is champion, featherweight, to fight Nate Diaz at welterweight last month. He'll fight Diaz again at that weight at UFC 200 in July. McGregor and Diaz both made it clear they didn't "give a f*ck" about weight classes and that was a major selling point of their fight, which could end up being the highest grossing of all time for the UFC.
